I'd like to nominate Nishiki-Teki. It's a cartoony "pop" font that takes a manga-styled approach to the detailed "traditional style" (kings and queens with decoration, rooks with masonry, knights with bases, realistic pawns) chess symbols. It also has variant pieces in its very extensive Private Use Area, mostly following Quivira's lead but with a few others from Unicode proposals, from U+FC2E0 to U+FC39E. The site is bilingual in Japanese and English.
